Roller Squeegee (w/ PTFE Sheet)

Achieve flawless, ultra-smooth prints with the Roller Squeegee, a professional-grade smoothing tool designed for screen printing perfection. Whether you're using an automatic press or a manual press, this game-changing tool eliminates fibrillation, ensuring crisp, high-resolution prints with an improved hand feel.

Fibrillation occurs when garment fibers lift after printing the underbase, causing a rough texture that diminishes the clarity of your final print. By using a Roller Squeegee after the flash, you matte down the fibers, creating a hardened, smooth surface that allows top colors to print with superior detail and consistency.

Each Roller Squeegee includes a PTFE sheet, which enhances smoothness and ink uniformity, mimicking the effect of a heat press directly on your screen printing machine. Available for most automatic machines, with a manual version also available, this tool is a must-have for professional printers seeking optimal print quality.
